Solve this system of equations using the elimination method.

Answer:

(6, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Our system of linear equations is:

6x + 2y = 18

-4x - 2y = -6

When we solve by elimination, we're essentially "eliminating" a variable so that we can solve for other more easily. Here, let's eliminate the y variable by adding the two equations together:

    6x + 2y = 18

+   -4x - 2y = -6

____________

    2x  +  0y = 12

x = 12/2 = 6

Plug this back into one of the original equations to find y:

-4x - 2y = -6

-4 * 6 - 2y = -6

-24 - 2y = -6

-2y = 18

y = -9

The solution is (6, -9).

Answer:

(6,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 2y = 18

-4x - 2y = -6

2y = -4x + 6

6x - 4x + 6 = 18

2x = 12

x = 6

2y = -4(6) + 6

2y = -18

y = -9

(6,-9)

Mrs.gauthier plans to take her class on 2 field trips this year there are 23 students in her class and each field trip will cost
Alina [70]

If there is 2 field trips with 23 students and each student costs $5 dollars. So for the 1st trip it will be 23x$5

1st trip- $115

And on the second trip its the same because there is 23 students that cost 5 dollars so it will be 23x5

2nd trip- $115

To find out the total of both trips youd add 115+115/

In total, for both trips it will cost $230 dollars.

Solve the following dividend problem.
brilliants [131]

A.

To get dividend per share, we need to divide total dividend by total numbers of shares outstanding.

Dividend per share = \frac{40,000}{50,000}=0.8 dollars.


B.

Since per share you get $0.8, for 100 shares you will get 0.8*100=80 dollars.

Also, that is \frac{80}{40,000}*100=0.2 percent of the total dividends.


ANSWER:

A. $0.8 per share

B. $80 (and that is 0.2% of total dividend)
